Confusion say, "best way to get up is to go down..."skidd
Who wrote this biography? You know, if those guys would spend more time on practicing their dance moves and less time fronting, they'd be the biggest inter- nationally acclaimed mega stars in the galaxy... Speaking of megastardom, if you can dance and synchronize as well as feel comfortable wearing kneepads, maybe I can make you a star!

![]() MC Skidd Wongspiritual manager and parasiteChristopher Wong was born in 1970 in Hong Kong. The son of a prosperous merchant, he went to expensive private schools and failed miserably. He spent his teens wandering the streets with petty thieves and drug dealers. With free access to his parents fortune, he quickly succumbed to a decadent lifestyle on the streets. When he turned 18, he began to wander across the world, following bands that were on the road, often hanging on as a roadie or some other gopher all the while presenting himself as part of the "management" team. While on a particularly long Pimmel tour, his drug use escalated until he was eventually cut off from his family's money. One night before a gig in Alberta, Canada, Skidd unceremoniously disappeared with the band's truck and equipment. Alone and cut off from family and friends, he worked under-the-table in a textile factory long enough to earn enough money for a one way ticket to Jakarta, Indonesia, where he picked up a job as a taxi driver in 1995. One of his regular fares were Naked & Shameless, who were working various hotel lounges in Jakarta. One summer night in 1998, he decided to drop in and see a Naked & Shameless set and saw big-assed dollar signs. He begged and pleaded with Buck and Dave, desperately wanting to bring take them back to the U.S. and to Europe. The duo caved into Skidd's incessant pressure late in 1999. Since the August, 2000 U.S. unveiling of Naked & Shameless, Skidd has been in and out of the picture. His penchant for get-rich-quick schemes and quick glamour fixes keep him on the move. But whenever the funds run out, it isn't long before he's back banging on Buck and Dave's door. Rumor has it that when he showed up at the July 4, 2002 Sexxxy Americanz recordings session he made off with all the master files and disappeared back to Jakarta. The master files mysteriously turned up the following December, but not until after the Asian market had been flooded with cheap bootlegs. Buck and Dave refuse to comment on the incident. WARNING: Skidd does NOT officially represent Naked & Shameless. If you run into him, he will probably represent himself as a manager. Do NOT make a deal with him. Do NOT give him money, drugs, or phone numbers! |
